وكیل شيء كل علىوھو شيء كل خالق الله“Allahu khāliqu kulli shay’in wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in wakīl” (Qur’ān 39:62). The One who creates everything is Allah ‘azza wa jall, He is All-Powerful. People are nothing, just nothing at all, in comparison to Allah. But even so, Allah values us. Allah ‘azza wa jalla says, “Nothing can contain Me except the heart of My believing servant.” Compared to the grandness of Allah, the universe, the worlds, become invisible. Allah ‘azza wa jalla gives us this privilege, this favor. [Yet] in spite of this, people go against Him despite their nothingness. Allah says to the believer (mu’min):

المحسنین یحب والله “Wa ’Llahu yuḥibbul muḥsinīn.” “Allah loves those who are muḥsin” (Qur’ān 3:134). Allah has love for those who have faith in Him. This love is better than owning this world and the universe. Let us not be those who are not loved by Allah. May Allah protect us from such!

الكافرینیحب لا الله فإن Allah says, “Fa ’inna ’Llaha lā yuḥibbul kāfirīn” (Qur’ān 3:32). Allah ‘azza wa jalla said this through His grandness. “I am in the heart of the believer (mu’min), his heart can contain Me.” May Allah make our faith everlasting, because there are a lot of people without faith. They are unfortunate. The fortunate ones are we; we are the lucky ones. Thanks be to Allah. Wa min Allāhi t-tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah
